There are a lot of challenges with space flight. One is simply getting the rocket off the ground. This is because the thrust to launch a rocket has to work against the force of gravity. So, there are two forces at play in this game: earth’s gravitational pull and thrust. Your kids will play with a computer interactive that demonstrates these two forces in action.

This is a simple test rig (mostly 3d printed) based on a design by John Walker (http://www.fourmilab.ch/gravitation/foobar/ Gravity is a weak attraction between two objects (beyond that, things get pretty speculative). This "gravity bar" is a rod with lead weights on the ends. It is suspended from a ladder using 6 pound test fishing line. A "daggerboard" on the bottom of the rod sits in water to dampen rotation. On August 12 I added a longer bar (longer bar, extenders and...

Nonlinearity in oscillations and waves can lead to dramatic and useful behavior. The course PH4459 at the Naval Postgraduate School was recently redesigned to extend its original subject of nonlinear acoustics to nonlinear oscillations and waves in general, with minimal prerequisites so that non-acoustics-tracked students can enroll in the course. Due to the unusual behavior and mathematical difficulty of nonlinear systems, lecture demonstrations are vital to the teaching of the course. The...

This describes the gravitational and centrifugal potential around an accreting neutron star. Called PSR J1023+0038, this system was a radio millisecond pulsar orbited by a vaguely Sun-like star. In 2013, something changed and the Sun-like star started dumping material on the pulsar. This model illustrates how: the larger object is the potential around the two objects. Gravity produces the wells around each object, while centrifugal force causes anything too far out to be flung away. The five...

I wanted to make an activity for the students in my middle school science class when we studied center of mass. I found a few "balance bird" models here. I really liked gianfranco's "a present for you !" version (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2674741) where you can place coins on the bird's wings and move the wing structure to demonstrate the change of center of mass. I found the tree didn't print with a flat surface on top. So, I cut the top to a flat surface. Also, I...

I designed this gravity light using a motor from an old microwave oven. This light will provide enough light to read with for about 5 to 10 minutes depending on the height that the generator is mounted above the floor, the weight used and the individual characteristics of the motor.

In this thesis, the performance and accuracy of explicit, semiimplicit, and Hybrid EulerianLagrangian SemiImplicit (HELSI) timeintegration methods used in atmospheric modeling are examined. Four test cases are analyzed: A density current, an inertial gravity wave, a rising thermal bubble, and a hydrostatic mountain wave. Strict attention is paid to computational time, stability criteria, and accuracy. The project aims to show increased efficiency using the HELSI method over fully semiimplicit...

Predicted 100 years ago by Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, gravitational waves have finally been detected. Today Dr. Marco Cavaglia, assistant spokesperson for the LIGO scientific collaboration, joins us to explain what these waves are, how they were detected, and what they can tell us about the universe.

Primary grade pupils can become fascinated with simple machines. This paper suggests that teachers have simple machines in the classroom for a unit of study. It proposes some guidelines to create a unit of study for six simple machines that include the fulcrum, inclined plane, pulley, wheel and axle, wedge, and screw. Friction, gravity, force, and inertia are the concepts to be studied in all facets of the unit. (ASK)

In 2017, the Event Horizon Telescope observed the giant black hole in the center of the galaxy M87. After a great deal of work, in 2019 the collaboration released an image they had produced from the data. It shows the shadow of the black hole against the glow of hot plasma falling in. This Thing is a realization of that image in three-dimensional tactile form. Labels are written in Braille along the sides for the benefit of people with limited or no vision.
